Guys,

I am looking for anyone that has played or is playing the X2 Hot Irons. Both my son and I have been looking at them and taking every chance to try them in the store. I even have a set on order to replace my G25's but have been really thinking if I want to make this change. The irons will not go to waste if I don't keep them,  my son will play them we have the same set up in the way of grip and lye. So any review I could get or like I said the good or bad you have had with them would be appreciated.

thanks

Mike M.

I don't play the XHot 2, but I play the XHot regular line, and I think they are very solid irons.  Forgiving, good feedback/feel, and a small amount of workability.  They are decenty long but also consistent.

For me, the original xhots are a rock-solid iron for any kind of player.

Thanks johnclayton1982, they just seem like a lot of fun, my Pings are feeling like a lot of work latly.

I know my Pings are out of wake and need to be re-adjusted so that could be why I am looking to change.

I had just heard about hot spots meaning there is no distance control, hard to tell on the monitor but they where going a bit further then my Pings and yes I know they are stronger lofts but felt nice when hitting them.

I just hate changing clubs there is always that period it takes to break in new ones, but I ordered on a whim.

    • Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…
    • Please forgive the sweaty shirt.  Just got off the treadmill and decided to do my Evolvr drill.  
    • I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play. 
    • Day 1: worked on my drill for my arms.
    • Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
